If there is a misfire, yes but it will bring up a code for a misfire. There is no code for blown head gasket. Symptoms of a blown head gasket are white smoke from the exhaust, misfire, coolant mixed with the oil which will produce an over full condition, loss of coolant with no apparent leak, a white foamy substance on the underside of the oil fill cap, air bubbles escaping from the radiator, and engine overheating.

Replaced head gasket in kia sportage still not right what could the problem be?
Did you just change the head gasket or did you take the head to a machine shop to be checked? If you didn't take the head to machine shop the most likely answer is the head is warped and not allowing new gasket to seal properly. It's possible that the machine shop can redeck the head and it will be fine. Hope this is helpful!!!

You have water in your engine from a blown head gasket what do you do?
Obviously you will have to replace the headgasket. Depending on the engine type and configuration, it may be a major process. Once the head has been removed you should take it to a machine shop to have it "planed", meaning that if the head gasket blew the head is probably warped and you have to do something to make it flat again. It can be out just a couple thousandths of an inch, something that you couldn't even detect, and that would be enough to cause the head gasket to leak. If you don't have experience with this, take it to a reputable mechanic.

Not necessarily. However, you should always have a qualified machine shop resurface the head for you whenever you replace a head gasket. While resurfacing the head, the machine shop technician will be able to examine the valves, seats and stem seals and be able to tell you what additional work needs to be done.
